WFH + 6ft tall fence + lots of love
Hi! I’m Stephanie! 🐾 I work full-time from home for Rocket Mortgage, so I’m home pretty much all day and your pup will have lots of company and attention while they’re here. I have two Pomeranians of my own. Luna is my “Covid puppy” and definitely the social butterfly of the house, while Cosmo is my sweet 14-year-old senior boy. Having a senior dog has given me lots of experience with the extra patience and care that older pups sometimes need. There’s also a baby in the house, so definitely a busy little household! The dogs are very much part of the family and I’m used to having a full house. We’re on a large corner lot with a fully fenced-in yard and 6-foot privacy fences, so there’s plenty of safe outdoor space for potty breaks, hanging out and getting some fresh air. We’ll still do walks, of course, but having a secure yard is definitely a nice bonus! And when it’s time to come inside, there’s a nice comfy couch right by the window where the dogs can keep themselves entertained watching everyone walk by. 😂 If your pup enjoys a good neighborhood watch spot and barking at the occasional passerby, they’ll fit right in! I’m pretty flexible when it comes to what your pup needs. Special diets, medications, potty accidents, extra walks, a specific routine, or just a LOT of cuddles are all totally okay with us. I know every dog is different, and am happy to keep them on whatever routine makes them feel most comfortable. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own, send pictures and updates, and make sure they get plenty of attention while they’re here. I know leaving your dog with someone can be stressful, so my goal is for you to feel like they’re having a little vacation of their own. 🐶❤️ I would love to have your pup come hang out!

Schedule
Our schedule is pretty relaxed and flexible! Since I work from home, I’m able to give the dogs attention, potty breaks, walks and outside time throughout the day rather than keeping them on a strict schedule. We’ll follow your pup’s normal routine as much as possible, including feeding times, medications, naps and whatever they’re used to at home. There’s plenty of time for walks and supervised yard time, but also lots of lounging, napping and hanging out with us. Basically, the dogs get to go with the flow of our day. If they want to play, we play. If they want to nap on the couch and watch the neighborhood, that works too!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I want every dog staying with me to feel safe, comfortable and at home. I have a large corner lot with a fully fenced yard and 6-foot privacy fences, so pups have plenty of secure space to get outside. I work from home full-time, so I’m around throughout the day and able to keep a close eye on everyone. I’m also comfortable with senior dogs, medications, special diets and the occasional potty accident.
Pets
A typical day
Our days are pretty laid-back and tend to follow the dogs’ lead. There’s plenty of time for outside breaks, walks, playtime and relaxing around the house while I work. Some pups may want to explore the yard or keep an eye on the neighborhood from the couch, while others are perfectly happy curling up for a nap. I like giving dogs the freedom to settle into whatever makes them comfortable.

- Before your pup’s stay, I’d love to know the basics about their routine, personality and needs. Please let me know about feeding, medications, allergies, potty habits, sleeping arrangements, and how they do with other dogs, children and being alone. I’d also want to know about any barking, reactivity, resource guarding, escape habits, or other quirks so I can make their stay as safe, comfortable and stress-free as possible
